You really should've made a port several years ago :-/ It would've been easier for your organization to maintain the software as you updated your FreeBSD systems, and it would've allowed the rest of us to begin using the fruits of your work that much earlier... > However, the Linux libraw1394 should be completely > scrapped as the ioctl's and underlying support are completely different. > Main.c, iso.c, and readwrite.c must be rewritten. Yeah, I expected so much -- I just want the API expected from libraw1394 by Linux-written applications to be available.

Thank you very much! I'll try to finish up the port with this... Can you provide your versions of main.c and readwrite.c as well? Thanks! -mi
